The whole situation seemed fake. They offered me a job without any interview, took days to get back to me about the job offer but replied to me in the weekend saying they couldn’t respond to me because of a mysterious medical emergency they aren’t allowed to disclose. I went along skeptical, but provided my full name, gender, dob, address, and cell number and email. They told me I needed a telegram account before I could be in contact through the company email, even though I was given a company email initially. The message sent screamed scam. They sent a video of a woman who looked like she was being held hostage and reading a vague script. My name wasn’t mentioned, the company, and none of it seemed professional for a bio tech company. Through LinkedIn, they only have 2 employees who you cannot view. The HR rep (Elizabeth Willson) was no where to be found on LinkedIn either, or any real credentials of the company online. It wasn’t until I googled the vague email “[email protected]” that I found this page with the exact same experience I had. Thankfully I was skeptical that I never provided any other crucial personal information.

In my offer letter, Katherine Williams/Glenn Dasher said they would send me a check to get my laptop for me because "All of our administrative staff are currently working from home and we are unable to coordinate the shipping of your office equipment to you. However, the company is willing to send you a check. The amount on the check will cover the purchase and shipping of your office equipment. The HR Assistant (Ms Williams) will also assist you with this process. You are expected to use the funds from the check to complete the purchase of your office equipment from the company-approved vendor. Kindly advise that the company can rely on your full trust, commitment and diligence in carrying out this task." (copied and pasted from the offer letter).

I received an email for work from home employment. Soon after a phone call interview, which was very breif and mainly for my current employment information. I have attempted to find contact information for this company VIA the website and non is listed. i was also sent a employment contract with the address listed. When I google search said address it shows me JP Morgan and a Hotel. They are requesting I fill out a W-4 tax form which does look the the indiana w-4 form. However I do not want to fill out this form until I am certain is a legitimate business. I have requested proof of business and am currently waiting the response

RE: Personal Funds held by your company on your platform

Dear Mr. Sengar,

I am writing to you as a worker at AppsChopper, Extension code SGAV2R, since I received training last Friday and Saturday, June 2 and 3 by Sophia, phone number 585 209-3496. I was working on the platform without any issues for 3 days. On the 4th day, Thursday, June 8th, I ran into a combination task that was far in excess of what I had available on my platform. It was back to back tasks of 1224 USDT and 1800 USDT. I had at the time 1276 USDT on the platform, so my account went negative to -1729.35. I contacted Sophia and Customer service for help with this as I had never encountered it nor was told that this could happen.

Your rules on the platform: 5.6 “In order to protect the interests of users, the amount of this application will increase according to the total balance of the account, and the income will increase accordingly.” At the time of the 1800 USDT task I did not have anywhere near 1800 USDT on the platform. And 6.5 “The system will randomly assign Combination tasks to user accounts according to the total balance range of the user account.” Today, after clearing the deficit in good faith, relying upon all the messages from Customer service and Sophia that all would be cleared, I cleared the 1800 task and was immediately hit with a 3880 USDT Task, I did not have 3980 on my platform, I had 176.85 USDT. I have a screenshot of this to prove it.

I am going to the FBI, and the local police to file a compliant against you and your companies for larceny, unless this is resolved immediately. And by resolved, I mean that you will return all of my funds immediately. The original 1276 USDT plus the commissions, the 1800 USDT I deposited today and all commissions that were to be paid on this account. It appears that your company has set up a salary scheme that can never be achieved as this would continue to escalate into the stratosphere, taking my account deeper and deeper into the hole; since I had only completed 1 task and it immediately took me negative again. This was my 5th day working and I should have received my 850 USDT salary as well.

You can resolve this quickly and with full effect. Contact me with your intentions.

I HAVE NOT ONLY LOST MY MONEY, I HAVE LOST OTHER PEOPLE’S MONEY IN THIS ENDEAVOR. I will be sending this letter to all law enforcement and the BBB, Better Business Bureau. I will be posting on the all social media platforms as well, and any other blog, post or other interested parties including the reddit and all means. Please govern yourself accordingly.

Responded to a LinkedIn job posting, and was made a job offer almost immediately with no interview OR resume WITH a digital contract. I have been working for nearly three weeks in the position of Remote Personal Assistant. I have received no payment, only the promise of payment. The person assigned to train me refuses to talk over the phone and only agrees to talk over WebEx. During training I have be requested multiple times to open personal investment accounts online and transfer money there.

I received a text, “ Hello ***** *******, I’m Lourdes Cornide from GTC Logistics Inc. Our Hiring Department received your application for the open position of an Administrative Assistant/Customer Service/Data Entry Clerk our company published on CareerBuilder. Your resume was reviewed and you have been shortlisted for an interview with our online recruitment team. Reply back with Yes for more details on the Job Position. Thank you!” from the number +1 (203) 713-3123. I was instructed to download “Signal messaging app” on my phone or computer. (828)307-2290 Jennifer Beasley contacted me through the app and proceeded with a convincing interview through messaging that lasted about 40 minutes. I was encouraged to open and browse the website during the interview. At the end of the “interview” I was asked to provide my full name, current home address, direct cell number, and preferred email address as well as what bank I use and if I had an account with Zelle. It was all very convincing but there were miner inconsistencies that lead me to extensive research. The business name is registered with the DOT but not the BBB. Also, after the interview, the number I had saved in my phone with the name and company… the information disappeared and wasn’t an added contact anymore.

I applied to a job offer on UPWORK.COM which was about content creator for social media, then a woman contacted me and told me that I have to talk to JOSH SHEFFIELD on telegram to know more about the job. The job that he offered me was a data entry job that involves transcribing images to Word documents. He sent me FlexJob pdfs and all the job data, so I accepted. After doing the work they asked me for the payment information and I sent them my Paypal because I am from Latin America, then they told me that I had to pay a fee of $40 to link the accounts and for the money to arrive. They never told me that this was a requirement before so I blocked them and I didn't spend any money. But be careful because I spent 2 days doing the job and I didn't win any money.

I was offered a job as a data Data Entry Position at Regenity BioSciences Inc. on 4/10/23. I interviewed with Jessica Swanson and she directed me in the process. I was given a check for purchasing equipment for the remote role. I was told to deposit the check and once it cleared I would transfer the money to Jason Eggles for equipment and he would send me the equipment. On 4/19/23 a check was deposited for $4950 because I received a job offer and the check was supposed to be used to purchase equipment that’s what I was told. Once the check cleared and the money was made available I transferred $1000 x 2 ( total of $2000) through Zelle from Citibank for a purchase of equipment on 4/19/23. Then on 4/21/23 we were notified that the check of $4950 was a fraud and we lost $2000. If the check did not clear and the funds were not made available then the transfer would not have happened and I would have known that it’s a fraud. Since the check was a fraud and we already made the transfer of $2000 I lost $2000 of my own money which wouldn’t have happened if the check was not cleared and I was made aware it was fraudulent . I have filed a complaint with Citibank and appealed it. I have provided them with all the information that I have for their investigation and I have called numerous times to find out if they received the information that I have sent over through fax and mail and no one is able to answer if they received the information and yet I have been denied a refund/claim. I’m not sure how they are making a decision if they don’t know they have all the information to do so. I am not able to talk to someone that makes the decision only the representatives and supervisors when I call Citibank they state they can only email or send a message over to the back office where decisions are made regarding frauds and investigations but don’t know about if the paperwork I sent has been received which I was told to send over and have had to pay for. I have asked for all the information that was used to make a decision and I should receive it soon hopefully.
